Navigation boxes

{{New Testament Books}} and {{Old Testament Books}}. For use as bottom navboxes. I know there're a lot of red links, but I'd prefer to put them on and let all the absent books show up on Special:WantedPages anyway; we do really want them. (Better yet would be to actually write the articles!) Please let me know when/if they're approved. Feel free to improve the code!

{{DivineComedy}} Navigation box for pages related to Dante's Divine Comedy. More terms will be added as pages are created. Please let me know if/when this is approved.--CPalmer 07:57, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

{{Navbox}} Brand-new uber-master template for navigation boxes. Can handle up to twenty lists, with or without group headings. Supports a basic style for all headings, or individual styles for separate lists or group headings. Collapsible, too—if you stack two templates based on it on the same page, only their title bars appear until you click a command (on the far right) to show them again. Supports images, conventional titles, and header and footer bars. FYI, I am using it right now as a replacement for {{Tnavbox basic}}; this new template is far more versatile.

Sorry, I know this is the wrong way to post this but I am very new to templates. Pleae just check it out. If there are not fulfilled requirements, maybe someone can do it because can't!!User:AddisonDM Dec 20 2008

Utilities

Three short cuts for inserting . Take no parameters. Handy for formatting text with images. BrianCo 17:23, 10 March 2008 (EDT)

Religion

I'd like some for "This user is a Discordian." "This user is a SubGenius." "This user is a Moonie." "This user is a Scientologist." and "This user has been Touched by His Nooldy Appendage." --Gulik5 23:33, 9 April 2008 (EDT)

Template:Navigator

Just a general navigator I created at another wiki. Inspiration for bringing here, and an example of where it could be used, are the Kanji pages, for example on the Elementary kanji second year page we could have:

Levels of Kanji

Previous

Current

Next

Elementary kanji first year

#PAGENAME

Elementary kanji third year

Or something to that effect. Now there are a couple of problems I've found:

What to replace #PAGENAME with so the name of the current page is displayed

How to allow the displayed name of the Previous/Next pages be different to the actual name (for example, replacing Elementary kanji first year with First Year). I'm thinking the best bet will be using IF statements (eg IF name = -Elementary kanji first year-First Year THEN output = [[Elementary kanji first year|First Year]] or something along those lines, the other alternative is to use multiple inputs, but that gets messy

The first of these points is the easiest to fix, and once it is the template should be ready to be used. We can sort the second point out as we go. StatsMsn 07:28, 2 June 2008 (EDT)

Template for parodist identification

It might be useful to have a "parodist" template to slap on user's userpages if they are suspected of being parodists. This will help sysops identify the users whose contributions they should look into with scrutiny. Oftentimes brand new users will start their "career" at CP by posting a controversial statement on, for example, the main talk page, without having any meaningful contributions to the encyclopedia itself. Such users are more often than not parodists, and having such a template will help temper them before they go on to do damage. --DRamon 16:30, 31 October 2008 (EDT)

Sports templates

I could use some templates about certain sports teams, leagues, etc. Plus a template on the taxonomy of a certain animal would be nice, too. JY23 19:46, 12 December 2008 (EST)

LPOV-statement

You would need to actually create a template, Npov2, not simply a page with a re-direct to an already deleted page. Please see the relevant template help pages. --₮K/Admin/Talk 22:40, 8 March 2009 (EDT)

NFL Teams template

References template

{{ref}} To save keystrokes when it comes to making a references section, sorry I started using it before realizing submission was required. Since it it so small and harmless I think I'll keep using it pending rejection of my application. --JerriahD 12:51, 16 June 2009 (EDT)

Math templates

Two things: These were never put in the list of templates, which it seems was supposed to happen. The four of them all go together. I didn't write them, by the way.

Also, the Math-h template has a minor formatting error that, unfortunately, makes it look completely wrong. The prime in "f prime" is nearly invisible. I think the text should be

{|style="width:500px; height:65px; text-align:center;background-color:#999900;" align="center"
|-style="background-color:#F8F0FB;text-align:center;"
|style="background-color:#fff;width:130px;"|<math>f(x)=\sin x\,</math>
<math>f'(x)=?\,</math>
|style="background-color:#ffffcc"|This article/section deals with mathematical concepts appropriate for a student in late high school or early university.

cite book, cite journal

I do not feel comfortable to do it myself, but I'd like to make a point that there is a message 'NO DOCUMENTATION FOR THIS!!' when I have a look here for help on cite book:
Template:Cite_book
I believe it is so frequently used that it would be nice if this can be fixed. Also I have a suggestion: I'm frequently confused how to interpret parameter 'page(s)' -I'd prefer if there are two such params: one referring to page(s) from where the quote is taken and other referring to total number of pages of the book.
I also suggest there should be a 'cite journal' template available. Thanks for your kind consideration. --AK 04:58, 29 September 2012 (EDT)

Language box

I created Template:Language box. This allows you to create a box with the name of the subject in the appropriate Asian language. Few of our readers can read non-Latin characters, so giving a name in an Asian language in the running text tends to interrupt the flow. This template allows this such characters to be treated as a graphic. See Republic of China for an example. PeterKa 02:31, 9 January 2014 (EST)

SDS

I created a template for Template:Students for a Democratic Society, there is an opportunity here to make the topic easier to navigate. Names get lost in the information collected on the SDS page and the FBI's chart is not clickable.
